The holidays are almost over and soon, our lovely Christmas tree will be a distant memory.

We have tons of lovely ornaments, that we've collected over the years, many have been gifts and some were handmade by me. (Yep, I actually managed to finish a couple small cross stitch pieces.)

So, before the ornaments are packed away and the tree is removed to our back yard, I thought I would share a few pictures...

"Our Christmas tree, right after Santa visited."Now, for a couple close-up of some cross stitched ornaments...

"Cute bear, dressed as Santa."(This cute bear came from a pattern book, I bought at our local book store. The book is called, "101 Weekend Cross Stitch Gifts", by: Lesley Teare. Its a great little pattern book, with lots of fun (and quick) projects.)

"Holiday Greetings"(HOLIDAY GREETINGS! This is another pattern I found in a book, unfortunately, I don't remember the book. It is an older one, though, so I'll have to track it down.)

"Cute snowman, with a pretty, red frame."

(Lastly, a cute little snowman, because I absolutely love snowmen! He was part of kit, that I actually finished and framed.)

So, that is a look at our Christmas tree and some of stitching projects! Feels good to actually be able to post some completely finished pieces.

It's like it is taunting me, telling me that I have nothing interesting to post, no pretty pictures to share...

Even though, I know I have lots to say and I always have a ton of pictures to post (I will be honest, though, most of those are of my candles), I still find it hard to start writing.

Well, I am facing my fear this year...

I am going to try my best to post and share regularly! (Cross your fingers and wish me luck!)

Mainly, this blog will feature cross stitch information (pictures, projects, links, etc.) and things about my cats (mainly my own, but I may throw in other information), so sit back, grab a cup of coffee and have fun browsing!
